A masterfully crafted vintage masterpiece.

The Kentucky KM-1500 Master F-Style Mandolin is a tribute to the finest mandolins of the early 20th century. Built using the finest Michigan maple and Adirondack spruce, this instrument is meticulously handcarved and graduated to recreate the tonal brilliance and volume of those original vintage models. The richly shaded Cremona sunburst finish captures the look of the classics, while the gold-plated tuning machines and tailpiece add an elegant touch of refinement.

With Premium Craftsmanship and Superior Tone

The KM-1500 features a solid handcarved Adirondack spruce top for superior note clarity and flamed Michigan maple back and sides for extra punch. Its slim, comfortable flamed maple neck allows for effortless playability, while the premium ebony fingerboard ensures long-lasting durability. The abalone pearl Vine inlay below the Kentucky logo is the crowning touch, showcasing the mandolin's exquisite design.

The Perfect Blend of Tradition and Elegance

Complete with a padded ProTour BV-2520 Mandolin Gig Bag, this mandolin is as stunning as it is sonically powerful. From its gold-plated hardware to its breathtaking sunburst finish, the Kentucky KM-1500 is designed for discerning musicians who demand both beauty and performance.
